As the countdown continues to the 2021 World Grand Prix, DartsNews continues to look back at some of the best matches and moments from over the years in the double start tournament.
Based this year in Leicester, its usual spiritual home is the Citywest in Dublin where a special feat was hit during the 2014 edition.
Already home of the first double start nine-darter hit by Brendan Dolan against James Wade, it was time for the latter to turn the tables but also keep to the script as both 'The Machine' and his opponent Robert Thornton hit nine-darters in one match.
A feat achieved since but not in double start, it remains one of the best moments in recent memory in the tournament.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
